  • γ h2ax foci as indication for the dna damage in erythrocytes of medaka oryzias latipes intoxicated with 4 Nonylphenol
    Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020
    Co-Authors: Alaa El-din H. Sayed, Shoji Oda, Shosaku Kashiwada, Tomomi Watanabeasaka, Hiroshi Mitani
    Abstract:

    The present study aimed to investigate the genotoxicity in erythrocytes induced after exposure of medaka (Oryzias latipes) to 4-Nonylphenol (4-NP). Adult female medaka fish were exposed to 4-NP at three sublethal concentrations for 15 days to compare their sensitivity with that of catfish as an aquatic model. Comet assay and γ-H2AX were used as biomarkers to detect DNA damage in erythrocytes. Exposure to 4-NP resulted in an increase in the tail moment in a dose-dependent manner. The highest level of DNA damage was recorded after exposure to 100 μg/l 4-NP. The number of foci was increased after exposure to 4-NP, indicating damage to DNA. The present results confirmed the high level of morphological alterations and apoptosis of erythrocytes detected in the first part of this study. 4-NP induced genotoxic effects in medaka, which were found to be more sensitive than catfish after exposure to 4-Nonylphenol.

  • sensitivity of medaka oryzias latipes to 4 Nonylphenol subacute exposure erythrocyte alterations and apoptosis
    Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology, 2018
    Co-Authors: Alaa El-din H. Sayed, Shoji Oda, Chisato Kataoka, Shosaku Kashiwada, Hiroshi Mitani
    Abstract:

    Abstract The present study was undertaken to assess the effects of the endocrine-disrupting compound; 4-Nonylphenol (4-NP) in medaka (Oryzias latipes). The frequencies of erythrocyte alterations, apoptosis, and micronuclei were used as biological indicators of damage. Medaka were exposed 15 days to 4-NP at three sublethal concentrations (50, 80, and 100 μg/l 4-NP) and results compared with those of a previous study using catfish as an animal model. Exposure of medaka resulted in a dose-dependent increase in the frequency of erythrocyte alterations, apoptosis and micronucleus (MN). Many morphological alterations and nuclear abnormalities were observed, including acanthocytes, lobed nucleus, eccentric nucleus, fragmented nucleus, blebbed nucleus, binuclei, deformed nucleus, notched nucleus, hemolysed cells, crenated cells, teardrop-like cells, and schistocytes. Mortality was recorded after treatment with 80 and 100 μg/l 4-NP, indicating that medaka are more sensitive than catfish to 4-NP exposure. We concluded that, 4-NP causes several malformations in the shape and number of erythrocytes in medaka, indicating its genotoxicity.

  • modulatory effects of green tea extract against the hepatotoxic effects of 4 Nonylphenol in catfish clarias gariepinus
    Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2018
    Co-Authors: Alaa El-din H. Sayed, Hamdy A M Soliman
    Abstract:

    The antioxidant role of the green tea (Camellia sinensis) extract (GTE) was examined to remedy the toxic effects of (0.2mgl-1) 4-Nonylphenol(4-NP). Biochemical parameters, antioxidant enzymes, liver lipid peroxidation (LPO), DNA fragmentation, and apoptosis as well as histopathology of liver of African catfish Clarias gariepinus were considered. Catfishes were divided into four groups: first group (control), second group (0.2mgl-1 of 4-NP), third group (0.2mgl-1of 4-NP +100mg GTE l-1water), and fourth group (0.2mgl-1 of 4-NP +200mg GTE l-1water). The results showed that significant increments of serum glucose, AST, ALT, total protein, total lipids, cholesterol, G6PDH, and cortisol. Meanwhile, serum acetylcholinesterase, ALP, and LDH were significantly reduced. In addition, antioxidant enzymes (SOD, CAT, GST, and TAC) levels were reduced in 4-NP treated fish compared to control. Also, there were significant increments in hepatic LPO, DNA fragmentation, and apoptotic erythrocytes in 4-NP treated fish compared to control. Liver of 4-NP treated fish showed some histopathological alterations such as, vacuolization in hepatocytes, congestion in central vein, infiltration of mononuclear inflammatory cells, and necrosis as well as depletion of glycogen content of liver. Addition of green tea extract into the water restored the alterations in most of those biomarkers induced by 4-NP. We concluded that, GTE has a protective role against hepatic failure, depletion of antioxidant defense, and genotoxicity induced 4-NP in C. gariepinus.

  • Protective effect of Nigella sativa on 4-Nonylphenol-induced nephrotoxicity in Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822)
    The Science of the total environment, 2017
    Co-Authors: Ahmed Kotb, Mahmoud Abd-elkareem, Nasser S. Abou Khalil, Alaa El-din H. Sayed
    Abstract:

    Abstract The aim of this study was to examine the protective effects of Nigella sativa ( N. sativa ) on 4-Nonylphenol-induced nephrotoxicity in Clarias gariepinus . 30 fishes were divided into five groups: control, 4-Nonylphenol-treated, 1% N. sativa treated, 2.5% N. sativa treated, and 5% N. sativa treated. N. sativa and 4-Nonylphenol were given for 3 weeks. 4-NP and 4-NP- N. sativa treated fishes were compared with the control group. Kidney histology, immunochemistry, and electron microscope were assessed after 4-NP exposure. In the African catfish, 4-NP is mainly excreted through the kidney causing nephrotoxicity. Our results showed that 4-NP administration significantly disturbed the kidney structure and function. 4-NP treated fishes showed dilated glomerular vessels, fewer glomerular cells content, decreased expressions of glomerular proteins, and increased level of autophagy compared to control group ( P N. sativa has different immunological and pharmacological effects such as anti-apoptotic and anti-oxidant, therefore, the administration of N. sativa with 4-Nonylphenol significantly minimize the nephrotoxic effect of 4-NP and maintain the normal kidney structure and function. Our novel study demonstrated for the first time that N. sativa could protect the kidney against 4-NP induced-nephrotoxicity.

  • induction of apoptosis and dna damage by 4 Nonylphenol in african catfish clarias gariepinus and the antioxidant role of cydonia oblonga
    Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2017
    Co-Authors: Alaa El-din H. Sayed, Heba S Hamed
    Abstract:

    In this study, we assessed the toxic effects of sub lethal concentration (0.1mgl-1) 4-Nonylphenol (4-NP) on serum biochemical parameters, liver lipid peroxidation (LPO) and antioxidant enzymes of the African catfish Clarias gariepinus for 14 days and the ability of the quince leaf extract to alleviate the effects of (4-NP). Fish were categorized into four groups: control, exposure to 0.1mgl-1 4-NP, exposure to 0.1mgl-1 4-NP with quince leaf extract (10ml/30L water), and exposure to 0.1mgl-1 4-NP with quince leaf extract (20ml/30L water). 4-NP exposure induced a significant (p<0.05) increase in the levels of glucose, AST, ALT, creatinine, urea, uric acid, cholesterol, and G6PDH as well as, the percentages of hepatic LPO level, DNA fragmentation, and apoptotic erythrocytes (p<0.05). A significant (p<0.05) decrease in alkaline phosphatase (ALP), total protein, albumin, globulin, total lipids, and LDH were also recorded. Liver enzyme activities (SOD, CAT and TAC) were increased. Addition of the quince leaf extract into the water was able to reinstate the alterations in biochemical parameters, antioxidant biomarkers, apoptotic level and hepatic DNA damage induced by 4-NP.
